Māori All Blacks vs British and Irish Lions

Christ that's a strong squad / predicted team.

@Tim Why on earth would anyone want to see Hall start over TKB? I'd rather see him dirty dirty with TTT on the bench.
Anyway, bloody strong team, I'm looking forward to this match. Annoyingly was just offered a ticket to it but I have work commitments that I can't get out of otherwise I'd be on the plane straight away.

@Nepia Because he's been putting in the work week in week out, and playing well for the Crusaders. He is the kind of player who should be rewarded with that kind of selection.
That's bollocks, there's a guy better than him, playing better than him so of course he should be selected. Hall shouldn't get the participation reward start.

TKB should start with Hall on the bench, definitely not TTT.
Yeah, that's just my personal preference ;), I can't stand Hall - it's a pity Weber is injured for the season.

@Nepia If it was about liking players or not, my preferred (Maori) ABs squads would look different, too.
By can't stand him I mean I think he's an average to poor player.

About Weber. I expect him to have a very good chance to become the third halfback after TKB's move to Europe. Some people have been talking up Pulu (esp in media), but Weber is so much better and faster. I have no idea how many halfbacks they are going to take on the EOYT, but I really hope he'll have a good Mitre 10 Cup season (also for other obvious reasons) to earn the 3rd halfback spot.

@Nepia He has improved significantly since his move south.
Haha. I'd take your word for it but considering your love of any thing in the red n black ....

@Nepia Hmmm, yeah, Weber's jersey has red and black in it, too.
So does Pulu's

@Stargazer said in Māori All Blacks vs British and Irish Lions:
@Crucial Looks Blue only to me. If I was talking about Mitre 10 Cup jerseys, I definitely wouldn't have described Weber's jersey as containing red and black.
Apparently it is offensive to call people Captain Obvious so I won't

Hope you didn't take that as smart arse. I was just taking the piss with @Nepia and his love of Hungus Pulu. It was obvious you were talking about a Super rugby jersey but that didn't fit my narrative.
If it came across as ridiculing you, I apologise.
